Indonesia announces 26-player squad for AFF Cup 2026

24 luglio 2026

Coach John Herdman named a 26-player squad for the 2026 AFF Cup including a record 11 naturalized players. The squad was announced on Friday July 24 2026 ahead of the opening match against Cambodia.

The Indonesian Football Association announced the final 26-player squad for the 2026 AFF Cup on Friday July 24 2026. John Herdman trimmed the list from 50 players and included many naturalized talents such as Thom Haye, Eliano Reijnders, and Marselino Ferdinan.

Vietnamese media outlet Soha expressed concern over the strong squad. Defending champions Vietnam lead Group A after a 7-0 win over Timor Leste.

Justin Hubner was reportedly not released by Fortuna Sittard as the tournament is not on the official FIFA calendar. Indonesia will face Cambodia on Monday July 27 2026 at Pakansari Stadium in Bogor.

Cosa dice la gente

Initial reactions on X center on the official announcement of Indonesia's 26-player squad for the 2026 AFF Cup by John Herdman, noting the inclusion of recently naturalized players like Mitchell Baker and the decision to travel with 26 despite match limits of 23. Posts from media and fans express neutral details on the roster composition alongside optimistic hopes for strong performance, with limited skepticism or criticism visible so far.
